TSI PortaCount® Pro 8030 and PortaCount® Pro+ 8038 Quantitative Respirator Fit Test Systems |
||||||
|
Existing qualitative fit testing methods, like irritant smoke, banana oil, saccharin, and Bitrex® are inherently limited to pass/fail levels and a fit factor of 100. OSHA and NFPA require a protection factor of at least 500 for full-face respirators, and ANSI requires 1000. There's no qualitative method that meets these standards. TSI's PortaCount® family eliminates the guesswork associated with tedious and error-prone qualitative fit test methods. PortaCount fit testers measure fit while the user performs a series of moving, breathing, and talking exercises that are designed to simulate the same movements users make in the field. |
